Eluvium Bundles Entire Catalog in Fancy LP Box Set

For the Eluvium fan who already has everything: a chance to own everything on vinyl! Temporary Residence Limited has assembled a real gobsmacker of an LP box set in Life Through Bombardment, a collection of what they're calling "virtually every Eluvium song ever released" spread out across seven slabs of 100% virgin black vinyl. Hot mama is that a lot of wax.

That's 41 Eluvium slowburners in all, each one's title a blog name in the making (I call "Perfect Neglect in a Field of Statues"!). But wait, there's more: Bombardment assaults your senses (in a good way) not just with its parade of gorgeous drones, but also with new art from Eluvium cover illustrator of note Jeannie Lynn Paske, a hardbound book collecting the LP sleeve jackets, a fold-out insert, and a removable old school library card containing the signatures of Paske and the other parties responsible for producing this luxury musical artifact. There's even a spot on the card for YOUR NAME, which Temporary Rez will inscribe for you along with the date of purchase. Keen!

Needless to say, Life Through Bombardment is limited to 1,000 copies and will probably sell out faster than you can say Merzbox. Temporary Residence is taking pre-orders now, and those worried they'll be lulled into a bliss-coma and won't be able to flip the records, worry not: the package comes with digital download codes as well.

Eluvium has one gig on his calendar right now, a November 23 "Art & Music vs. Cancer" benefit with Menomena and Dolorean at Doug Fir Lounge in Portland, Oregon.
